Malawi Attorney General Questioned Over Huge Foreign Currency at Gatwick Airport

Malawi’s Attorney General, Thabo Chakaka Nyirenda, faced a tense encounter at London’s Gatwick Airport on Monday when security officials stopped him over a large amount of foreign currency in his possession. Nyirenda, who was reportedly traveling with a female companion described as a concubine, was pressed to explain the purpose of his visit and the origin of the funds.

Sources indicate that the incident escalated when Nyirenda dropped his business card, seemingly attempting to use his official status to address the situation. However, this only heightened scrutiny from airport security. It remains unclear whether Nyirenda provided satisfactory answers or if any legal action followed the questioning.

This incident has sparked public outcry and debate in Malawi, with critics questioning the propriety of an Attorney General traveling with such significant cash amounts and in the company of a companion under questionable circumstances. Calls for transparency and accountability have intensified, with many demanding an official statement to clarify the purpose of the trip and the source of the funds.

As of now, neither Nyirenda nor his office has issued a comment on the matter, leaving many Malawians awaiting further details about this controversial development.
